Happy Fall/Halloween Everyone! If you're like me and don't really bother with the whole Halloween thing, then try putting your energy into an evening of baking (and Netflix)!

I made sure to remember it for when Thanksgiving rolled around because it makes for … Continue reading Thanksgiving Leftovers: Turkey & Brie Sandwiches

As per usual, I fall pretty hard for autumn recipes! Dinner tonight really satisfied our hunger and our need for something fall-like that wasn't overly heavy but not light like a summer salad. I used to make acorn squash a long time ago, but for some reason forgot about this timeless fall classic until now. The … Continue reading Autumn Acorn Squash with Maple Brown Butter & Walnuts
